How to setup a custom domain?

This documentation shows how to set up a custom domain for your status page.

Background

Custom domain is a feature that is used when status page address needs to match with your company’s website address. In this demo, we will use our demo domain examplecompany.xyz, and want to add custom domain status.examplecompany.xyz for our status page.

Step 1 – Configure DNS

The first step is to update DNS settings for the domain, in this demo for the domain examplecompany.xyz. The basic idea is to point custom domain to AdminLabs’ domain status.adminlabs.com. Because there are a countless amount of DNS management tools, we can’t have instructions on all of them. However, you should get the know-how based on the following examples.

Example – GoDaddy

Login to your GoDaddy account

Navigate to Domain manager / Manage Zones

Find your domain

Insert a new CNAME record – please see the example image

Example – Cloudflare

Login to your Cloudflare account

Select your domain

Select tab DNS

Insert a new CNAME record – please see the example image

Step 2 – Update the domain for the status page

The second, and the last thing is to update the custom domain for the status page:

Login to AdminLabs Dashboard

Navigate to Status Pages / Manage

Open your status page in edit mode

Insert the domain status.examplecompany.x into the field Custom domain and save changes – please see the example image
